Description

Note: DOES NOT CURRENTLY WORK ON ANDROID OREO (8.x). We are looking into it.

Unison is a multi-platform (Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, Unix, etc.) utility maintained by Benjamin Pierce to synchronize files across different hosts and devices. Synchronized files can be modified independently on separate hosts, then brought up to date whenever Unison is run. File synchronization is fast and efficient, utilizing a transfer protocol similar to rsync.

Unison for Android delivers Unison binaries compiled for Android, along with a graphical user interface for running those binaries in server mode.

Once the Unison server has been started on your Android device, you can connect with a Unison client on your desktop, laptop, or other device to synchronize pictures, videos, or any other file content. No SSH access is necessary - clients connect directly via socket.

Because Unison clients connect to your device over a direct socket connection instead of over SSH, the server should only be run when your Android device is connected to a trusted network, like a home WiFi. Running the server on other networks could expose files on your device to untrusted parties.

Unison is free and released under the GNU Public License. Unison for non-Android platforms, as well as full source code, can be downloaded at:

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

User's Reivew

1 ★No android 8.x support, wanted money for binaries. I used 'Unison' app instead.
1 ★Asks for money for all features. They're literally trying to charge to use an open source tool ...
1 ★doesn't work at all after I paid
5 ★Works great. However, on my rooted phone on Nougat, the app would crash when ran with root privileges in order to write to the external sdcard. How I got it to work: although the designer states that the app will not run through ssh, I was able to connect to Unison on the phone via ssh from a Linux Unison client, just by selecting the right options -- specifically, by using the servercmd parameter. Great app --- highly recommended.
5 ★Fantastic. I had been using a Unison server from a different developer until upgrading to Nougat, when I discovered that it was no longer being supported. I'm now using Unison for Android from Nerdy Software and am really happy with it. I Upgraded to Pro and am using the 2.40.128 version very happily. It is simple, does what I expect it to do, well, and nothing more.
1 ★Used to work really well on my Samsung Galaxy S7 and I used it daily to sync audio and photo between my phone and my other systems. Then about a couple of months ago it failed - it stops running as soon as a client connection is made. I've waited to see if it gets updated and I've tried tweaking various options but I can't get it to work again - a shame as it fitted my 'workflow' really well.
3 ★I get a message like this when trying to sync, and can't figure out how to get it to work: The file /data/user/0/com.nerdysoftware.unison/files/.unison/lka426c9d83dca91bd153929d76db52e3e on host localhost should be deleted Please delete lock files as appropriate and try again.
1 ★The free version is crippled by only being able to use one version of the Unison binary on the remote version. This makes it unusable.
1 ★Absolutely unusable unless you pay
1 ★Only runs an old version of unison which is not compatible with newer versions
